Initial version - very rough. Needs editing and a lot more info

New page

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Orbits and PatchedConicsOrbit methods and info}}
[[Category:KSP 1 code conversion]]

When porting from KSP1 to KSP2 one of the first things you're likely to encounter is the fact that where KSP1 defined an orbit using the Orbit class, in KSP2 it's now the PatchedConicsOrbit class. These classes have a lot in common; for example, there are a number of methods and properties where the names are almost identical other than a change of case for the initial character. Nevertheless, there are a few differences that you should know about when porting KSP1 code to work in KSP2.

So where you might have a variable of type Orbit, now you'll mostly use a variable of type PatchedConicsOrbit.
